ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA -- I recently visited the GNC store at Landmark Mall in Alexandria, VA, and the clerk there was unbelievably rude to me. I should have expected an extremely agressive person when I saw how unnaturally muscular he was and walked out of the store immediately, but unfortunately, I went in anyway. I will certainly avoid this store from now on, as well as other supplement stores where the clerk appears excessively large.

Was the clerk actually rude to your or were you just intimidated by his muscles?

Don't take it so personally. I encounter poor service and discontented sales clerks all the time. Maybe their life is just a drag, see it as a challenge to make them smile or to consider other attitudes, you have nothing to lose the way i see it.

I understand that "big" guys tend to have a macho attitude, but they are not ALL that way.
